Parental Rights And Custody
Summary

False allegations can be addressed under defamation laws. Courts consider various factors, including the childs preferences and signs of coercion. Consequences for coercion can include loss of custody or supervised visitation. Reunification with an alienated parent may involve therapy and gradual visitation changes. Legal processes can be lengthy, and suing for damages requires substantial evidence. Document interactions, save communications, and gather witness statements for potential legal actions. Consult with an attorney for personalized guidance.Full Conversation
